I was wondering if anyone had any insight on helping my wife see the benefits of house hacking. We currently own a house and I'm trying to convince her to buy a multi with me to help save money for more investment properties. Any help at all is appreciated.
@Joshua Norwood When we were moving back to Minnesota I wanted to house hack. I found a 4-plex that I thought would work well. Ran the numbers, put together a plan, talked it over... and my wife said no. Ha! So I’m a bad example.
However, after that I found a house with a great yard that is on a small lake. The best part is that it has a mother-in-law suite that we rent out. It cuts our mortgage in half. I didn’t get the property I wanted the most, but I have a great marriage and I’m partially house hacking. Hopefully you can keep searching and find a property that works for both of you.
